Letter: Praise for Abingdon Volunteer Fire and Rescue

Dear Abingdon Fire Department and Rescue Team—I want to thank you so very much for the wonderful job you did the day of the fire at my home on May 11. I’ve always known how very good a job you all do. But when you see it happen to you, it’s different. You all answered my call and were there within minutes.

My insurance agent said the wonderful job you did was why you saved what you did for me.

And a very special thanks for finding my kitty cat, although he didn’t make it. Many, many thanks for what you all did and many thanks for the caring and concern of the neighbors and friends. You are the greatest.

Gloucester County, I hope everyone realizes what wonderful fire and rescue teams we have. You are the greatest. Thanks again.

Mary E. Setterholm

Hayes, Va.

P.S. When I get back in my house, I’ll be baking some of my homemade rolls for you guys.
